MODERNIZED NAMES IN THE KAZAKH LEXICON

Abstract

The article discusses the use of new names in connection with the renaming of existing objects and phenomena in a more accurate way. During the study, it was noticed that new values were added to a number of them. Modernized names are words and expressions that, although they were in our vocabulary, were once rarely spoken and out of use, obscured in meaning or forgotten, but are now being used again in connection with the revival of the nation, acquiring a new meaning. A group of modernized names is contained in the fifteen-volume «dictionary of the Kazakh literary language», published in the period from 2006 to 2013 as part of the «Madeni mura» program. However, it is impossible to cover the entire word in the language in explanatory dictionaries, so it is periodically supplemented. When we unite the world, in which we live as a person-society-nature, each of them is reflected in the now resurgent names, and there are many of them.For example, names that are newly used or not familiar to the general public, associated with customs, traditions, religious rites, crafts , folk healers, etc. is a language treasure that revives our spiritual world.The modernized names will be used for the first time for the beginning of the «National Corpus of the Kazakh Language»; is also a multi-volume interpretation and lexicographic material necessary for linguocultural dictionaries of the Kazakh language.
